From the powerhouse Dream Games, Ltd. comes a unique and hilarious Match 3 puzzle mobile game, Royal Match. As the player, your goal is to help King Robert as he restores his palace to its former glory. So, play the levels to earn stars for King Robert and his goal.

Yes, the gameplay is straightforward and a beginner can grab on quite quickly. However, having an effective strategy in place will help you to advance through the levels faster and earn more stars. Hence, here are some effective tips and tricks that are designed to make you a pro in Royal Match in no time.

First focus on the bottom tile

If you are in doubt about how to start a level, consider matching using the bottom tiles first. New or fresh tiles are dropped down from the top when the bottom tiles are removed. So, removing the bottom tiles opens up the opportunity to play with new tiles. This gameplay requires a little bit of luck, and if you are lucky enough to get a couple of match-able tiles, you can turn around a bad hand successfully. If matching the bottom tiles provides an opportunity for a booster, consider removing it first even if you find other great matches located at the top of the board.

Take advantage of free game tips

The classical approach reminiscent of match-3 puzzle mobile games can be seen in this game as well. So, if you have played such games before, you already know these games provide hints if you sit idle for a while. If you are struggling to find a match, sit still for a while. The game will show you a possible move you can take to keep on advancing at that particular level. You should consider this as they do not cost any game currency. Sitting idle while a level match is on will not hurt your gameplay in any way as the levels in Royal Match are not time-based.

Use as many boosters as possible

Yes, your goal is to match 3 blocks or tiles to clear the board or the level’s goals/objectives. However, if you want to advance quicker with more rewards, consider making matches using more than 3 tiles. Thus, taking time to get familiar with the different boosters of the game is highly recommended. If you know the criteria for creating a TNT, rocket, light ball, and propeller, you can strategize the gameplay accordingly to ensure you are making matches that produce these boosters. Using boosters as much as possible will allow you to clear a level much more effectively and swiftly.

Pro Tip: Combine two different or similar boosters to create a new one as they can provide the maximum advantage. For example, combining a Light Ball with a TNT will replace all tiles of the same color with the booster. Similarly, combining two TNT will ensure the radius and effect of the explosion are double compared to what a single TNT can provide.

Complete your tasks faster

Most beginners do not strategize how they will use their earned stars. They are usually in a hurry to help King Robert. But, if you use it strategically instead to fill up your area completion bar, you will get the chest filled with rewards. If you can make the bar full, you will be rewarded with many wonderful rewards including coins, boosters, and other necessary goodies that can be used to improve your gaming experience.

When to use the special items seen at the bottom

All levels in Royal Match come with some special items that are available at your screen’s bottom. These items are Arrow, Royal Hammer, Jester Hat, and Cannon. You can use them whenever you want during a level playthrough, however, it will be wiser to consider them as a last resort only. Most beginners are unaware of the consequences and use them early on during the playthrough. If you strategize using them only when you are about to finish the level or you have 5 or fewer moves left, your gameplay will be much more profitable. Using them early on leads to a quick drainage of your coins total. Special items are helpful during tougher stages, so plan to use them accurately and timely for effective gameplay.

These above-mentioned Royal Match tips and tricks will surely improve your gameplay. However, these hacks alone cannot help you if you are unaware of the game rules. Take time to understand the advantages provided by the game that you can use to strategize your gameplay better. Also, play a couple of initial levels as much as possible to get familiar with the gaming controls for an improved gaming experience.
